  Welcome to the Wellesley High School Preservation site sponsored by the Wellesley High School Preservation Committee. As a group that includes Wellesley residents as well as WHS graduates and faculty, we intend to contribute to the planning for the preservation and restoration of the exterior and interior of the original 1938 building and also to the improvement and beautification of its site and surrounding grounds. We have adopted these goals:
  • To raise the awareness of Wellesley residents of the practical need to preserve and restore the 1938 building for current and future educational and community use.
  • To keep steadily in view the historical significance of the 1938 Wellesley High School as an attractive and functional asset that is worthy of preservation.
  • To illustrate in a balanced and informative way how and why the 1938 building embodies the spirit of who we are, where we have been, and where we are able to go as a high school and as a community.
 
     
  In this site we have included information that we think residents of the town and neighbors of the High School will find useful. We invite you to review the background and follow the progress of a building project that is of major significance to the community. We ask you to support our efforts in promoting the preservation and restoration of the 1938 Wellesley High School.
